This is the explosive and epic finale to John Jackson Miller's series that following the misadventures of the horrible failure of a Padawan, Zayne Carrick, who was framed for the murder of his fellow students by his master. The rogue Jedi Consulars called the Jedi Covenant, obsessed with preventing the return of the Sith, pursue Zayne and his friends Gryph, Jarael, and Camper from one corner of the galaxy to the other. All of this is set in the context of the Mandalorian Wars, at once a sequel to the 90s Tales of the Jedi series and a prequel to the massively popular video game, Knights of the Old Republic.
